On September 29 and 30 the Excalibur Medieval Tournament and Market Faire will once again magically appear in the fields next to Mad River Hospital, on Janes Road.

Enter a world of pageantry and valor as armored knights joust for glory. Thrill to the clash of blades and of the blacksmith’s hammer in the medieval village, where the Middle Ages are brought to life. Enjoy wandering minstrels, dancers, storytellers and friendly characters from lords to peasants.

Visit authentic encampments and learn the latest in 13th Century technology! Stroll the streets of our market and inspect the wares of dozens of craftsmen and artisans, then quench your thirst with a hearty ale at the Dark Horse Tavern, and feast like a king on turkey legs, wild boar and much more.

There are games of skill, a petting zoo and entertainments for the entire family. The castle gates open at 10 a.m., admission is just $8 for adults and $5 for young lords and ladies, and parking is free.
